Wow, I didn’t know the universe is so big! This must be like thousands of football fields.
Thousands? Much, much more...!!!
how many monkeys does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Enough room for thousands of three dimensional things. Thus it's actually more like three thousand.
how many football fields does it take to play the superbowl?
Billions and billions of thousands yes
The map of the Universe reminds me of the mapping of the human brain with its billions of neurons.
I know there are differences with the physics of how stuff moves around in each, but yeah I see that too 100%. At one point in this video as it was zooming out into greater and greater superstructures, I said aloud, It's a brain!
@@jugganaut26 it is the mind of God.
Strange correlation, isn't it?
some believed, the reason why universe kept expanding is bcoz its a brain or body of a creature (or god) thats maturing and coming more into consciousness. thats why pre historic creatures (or its creations) are less intelligent. it represented the mind of a child, dominant in subconscious until it evolves into more and more intelligent creatures such us. if its true, for me its on its teenage phase yet, smart but self destructive. everything is cycling like a loop
Looking out, looking in. So what must be in the middle/center? Even more (kenetic) between All of everyones all the yous and mes time/dimension whereas time is constant of right triangle and dimension= 2, +/- or light/dark, or di. = 2( 1opisite 1) and so on!
The universe has to be at least 12 tractors.
When a leaf is caught in a river it quickly aligns itself to the plane of the water's surface and then begins traveling along with the swirling and rotating water molecules surrounding it.
Odd how on such a macro scale, things behave with a natural simplicity.
A leaf on a river and how it travels along it is what I would often use as a metaphor of life.
But they don't. Leaves will eventually catch, then they will catch larger twigs and branches. Then entire trees and even rocks.
This can literally create land masses.
Ever since I was a kid I’ve gazed into the night skies, and to this day I still get the same feeling I used to as a child - fascination. But as I’ve gotten older, my love and appreciation for the stars has only grown. Even if we truly are so insignificant in the grand scheme of the cosmos, I couldn’t picture a better backdrop to be an observer in.
I’ve always viewed self-conscious life as more significant than any multi-light year spanning rocks or gas clouds tbbqh
Yes, the dredd and aww at same time. There is no feeling like lookking into night sky.
I have same thing, this weird feeling that i diden't understand as child. I feel alive, even when i'm depressed, just by starwatching.
Have always worked better than any antidebressant for me.
have you read 'worlds in collision' by velokovsky ?
It’s the only thing that provides me comfort in the thought of what if there isn’t a God. Somehow it’s magnificent beauty brings peace none the less.
@@quintonrichards4805 Im insomniac, dyslexic and an atheist ,
i lay awake at night wondering if there is a Dog.
I'll rank this series right up there with my favorite growing up: Carl Sagan's and PBS' "Cosmos". Waiting patiently for my dad to arrive home after work with the latest VHS rental seemed to take forever. And decades later, we have a free series that rivals it in scale, scope, and beauty. Thank you to every single person involved!
Well said Ryan . A1 .
I think BBC may have invested a lot in Sagan's Cosmos.
It was fascinating.
He did sound very Kermit the frog in it.
There was only 1 person 😂
@@daMillenialTrucker Then I thank him or her! 😬👍
Our galaxy is somewhere in the elbow of the Elden Beast, good to know.
so our universe is just one big erdtree
This video is wonderful! An honor to have contributed with my voids and supercluster images!
Hey! I'm subscribed to your channel I love it!
I am a bit relieved that it takes 5 people to put this together, but honestly I thought there would be about 10-15 people working on these. One of the highest quality content on TH-cam I have seen, maybe the best. Have a lovely holiday y'all.
Y'all
lol
Would any propaganda piece convince anyone without having high production values & the narrator's posh accent doesn't hurt, eh?
@@artdonovandesign y'all = you all.
Sadly modern English has no convenient plural 3rd party pronoun.
@@john-ic5pz how is this a propaganda piece?
@@john-ic5pz Mayonnaise= Mayonnaise some big ol' trees ova dare.
I legitimately get excited when I get notified about new episodes from HOTU. Truly top-notch quality production. More people need to know about this channel.
Me too.
Yup. Change of plans right there.
Gonna sleep like a baby tonight!
Me three
Me also
I thought i was looking at elden beast💀
i guess we do live in the lands between fr
I swear. I've always believed that we are just micro organisms inside something's body, just like the ones we have in our body. Looking at this scale it's hard to even say that us humans are even close to the size of an atom of this "body" shown here. Unbelievable
i legit thought i was the only one. it’s really odd to read this multiple times on this video, like it makes me wonder where that thought comes from
@@floristfindspeace Cosmic egg for a higher dimensional being? The brain? Honestly how far we have managed to zoom in AND out from our perspective is pretty impressive.
Not even close. Consider this:
How small the area at the tip of a sharp pencil is (a fraction of a millimetre?) relative to the size of the Known Universe (roughly 90 billion light years across?) is how small a Planck length is relative to the area of the tip of a sharp pencil. Based on the scaling, we are even smaller that the quarks that are the smallest known subatomic particles. These particles are so small that an atom would be like the entire solar system and the quarks would be the size of a grain of sand.
'Here come the Men in Black'.
Size has no meaning in the face of infinity. We are both infinitely large and infinitely small in comparison.
What an unbelievable feat. That’s like standing on the bottom of the ocean and being able to map the entire planet geographically
it's more like standing at the bottom of the ocean and mapping the waves on the surface, completely ignorant that anything could even exist beyond the water, wholly unaware of the concept of the planet.
Is it like that? Is that what it is like? Heckin' sciencerino!
Umm. No? It's nothing like that unless you're a being that's the size of 1 planck length... The universe is massive and no one has an idea how big it truly is.
HI Nik, I also love the cube of 7.
If it sounds impossible, it probably is.
Whenever I lose perspective and feel like the walls are closing in on me, our unimaginable universe and its limitless wonder saves the day.
Me too; Here for same reason...
If the radius from now to the beginning of the observable Universe is 13.8 then how come the radius is 46 in one direction? Non-sensical?
@@reasonerenlightened2456 The light that travels the longest gets stretched by the greatest amount, and the object that emitted that light is now at a greater distance because the universe is expanding. We can see objects up to 46.1 billion light-years away precisely because of the expanding universe.And if there is not a big bang i mean if the bigbang theory is false forgot my upper explanation ,then we have to find a other way to calculate the age of universe
We are inside the Elden beast
This series is truly a masterpiece. It should be required viewing for every schoolkid on the planet.
I’m surprised that this is an ongoing series and not just clips of other shows from the past. Glad to see this continuing content.
He's copied other popular shows.. I'm ashamed at everyone else for not seeing it..
@@KGB.83 Yeah and history is repeating itself, people who know how to put information together in an entertaining way regardless if it has been said before is the value of the content.
Im sure all of this stuff has been said months and years prior, but the value of this product is that it is being made now, with a unique twist that only HOTU can add (Narration, Animation and much more.)
@@KGB.83 Shit, you mean he uses and displays some of the same information while talking about the same thing? Crazy
@@KGB.83 Wow! That’s crazy! This channel is talking about the same topics as other space-related channels! That means they’re copying other people! I can’t believe anyone would do this!
This was so well put together my guy. The production value of this is 10/10.
Simply brilliant.
Avatar had great production values
....yet is recognized as a work of fiction.
Sadly, these documentaries are taken as fact rather than an elaborate work on science fiction & physics runs in circles chasing dark matter and dark energy.
The energy isn't dark. The physicists have their eyes closed...ignoring the electromagnetic force and worshipping at Einstein's altar of a gravity only universe.
It's absolutely insane to try and imagine the sheer scale of the universe. The milky way alone is so massive, yet it's only 1 of millions if not billions of other galaxies. Then the space between these galaxies is hundreds of times larger than that. So many mysteries
Its theorized that there are as many as 2 trillion galaxies.🤯
The best video I've seen on the issue to date. The clarity is impressive, and the visuals are very good.
I've been thinking about these topics for decades. I chatted to my young son about them. He is about to finish his PhD in Physics. He knows more now than I can list. The best I can hope to do to follow his eight years of in depth study is watch videos like this - or talk to him :-)
15 yrs of TH-cam science videos , this is the only time I have ever had the hairs on my body stand on end. This is the best video I have ever watched. I know how it sounds.
Go watch MelodySheeps videos on the moon and the three parter he did called "Life Beyond". I especially like Museum of Alien Life one.
I was tempted to write the same thing, my friend. And I don't comment very often, anymore.
if the radius from now to the beginning of the observable Universe is 13.8 then how come the radius is 46 in one direction? Non-sensical?
@@reasonerenlightened2456 You can google answer for that very easily.
Check out "Science saved my soul" by Phil Hellenes. It's beautiful.
The format of this series makes it remarkably entertaining and informative. It is also up to date, respective of the viewer's intelligence, and encompasses the full range of topics suggested by its name. I am completely hooked and thankful to those involved in its production. Keep the series coming!
This video needs a double thumbs up option. Fantastic content, well done!
I can't count how many times I've heard the story of the universe but this one stuck with me much more deeply than others, very good cohesion of concepts
You taught me more in 45 minutes about the universe, than learned my entire life, in January I officially go to school to become an astrophysicist... What help you have been with only mere words, that resonate on every level, knowledge and abundance collectively given in its most simplistic form. 100,000 thank you s ❤️
Congratulations!!! 🎉

Been watching this playlist from start, and hearing about Wondrium, and actually processing everything you've put into this series so far; i see how they have inspired you. I love it, once I finish this playlist, i'll probably go check them out.
Awesome and this presentation is utterly astounding… You’ve explained stuff I’ve only barely understood, and I thank you for that.
This video is a masterpiece. From the beautiful visuals to your thoughtful text and narration, it all comes together extremely well. It deserves as many views as there are stars in the Milky Way galaxy. Please keep up the good work. I can't wait to see your next episode.

I agree! Incredible and very well explained!
@@reasonerenlightened2456 there’s a video out there that explains this. I think the answer is based on the rate of expansion relative to the time it takes for the light of different structures to reach us. I think
@@reasonerenlightened2456 I explain it to you: What you see now in deepest reaches of space is the result of light, that was sent 13.8 billion years ago. And so what you see now, is the status quo as it was 13.8 billion years BEFORE now. But in the meanwhile (during those 13.8 billion years) the REAL expanse of the universe has grown to a radius 46 billion lightyears. And so what you perceive as 13.8 billion lightyears away is indeed 46 billion lightyears away.
@@reasonerenlightened2456😢😢w
YES, finally a new episode. I've been watching all the past episodes countless times every single night going to sleep.
The content is so amazing and interesting that other science docu don't cover. Yet the voice and narration is so soothing that makes it easy to fall asleep to.
Agree with you... the right voice for this type of content. Like they thought well about the fact that not all listeners would be English speaking. Many other channels don't seem to think about it, speaking super fast, with regional slangs, and some English accents not well understood by even other English speakers.
Watched this with our boys. (10 & 13) They had their mouths agape through the video. I asked them their thoughts on war, racism, and money after the video. They gave the expected answers. The universe gives us perspective. Thank you.
So Very Excellent Series !
Ranks above and beyond Sagan's Cosmos, a no small feat !!!
Thank You So Much.
Gah that was an insanely epic video. It's 3:45AM and the time I spent watching felt like a trance, I didn't realize I was tired until I finished. Thank you for the awesome experience, Jon Farrow!
This series of videos is without a doubt my favorite thing on TH-cam. Thank you for the consistently awe-inspiring content.
THE ELDEN BEAST
Fantastic show as always ! Thank you.
You deserve to be on millions of subscribers for the work you put into this channel
Like the history channel..lol
I am currently just speechless. The research, narration and knowledge packed in this video is mesmerizing! The amount of depth this video held, yet pertaining to the simplicity to catch the eye of the general audience is extremely commendable! Thank you for this. It has further heightened my curiosity to understand the Universe!
@@trannystomper88 What does that even have to do with whatever I said! Also, probably correct your own English first. Its supposed to be "you're" or "you are". There is no such word as "ur" in the English dictionary.
It's just what these guys do enjoy😊
@@pranjalibhattacharjee1121 Fake news about you!!!
Thank you for your amazing work and outstanding quality of video and narration.
On my 9 years of TH-cam content consumption I have to say this is my absolute favourite video by a margin, thank you!
It's taken me years of reading to learn the stuff you explain in the course of a 45 minute video. I continue to be amazed by how effectively you pack so much information into such a short time while also keeping it in the correct order for proper comprehension.
Truth: I am a cosmology junkie. I eat this subject up with a spoon so I don't miss a drop. Loving your channel. I typically have to watch each episode at least twice (not a problem) because they are so information dense (that's a good thing) with a welcome specificity. Many chicken out when it comes to putting a number on some things and rely on 'really really big'. Oh, and I haven't caught you (yet) saying 'millions' instead of 'billions' (trust me, that's a thing). Thank you. I hope I made you smile. Peace.
Watch Professor Dave Explains channel. THE BEST!
ok ! can u answer me sir , how our scinetis knows how our milyway look?even tho none of man made thing have went that far
So I'm not sure If English just isn't your first language, you're rather young, or typing short hand on a mobile device's digital keyboard and that's why the spelling and grammar in your question isn't the best. But no judgment on that from me, the way I type is not perfect either.
So, we have launched the Voyager Probe, which we are still communicating with and if you look up some of the photos from the probe, you can see the sheer magnitude of the distance it has covered and although it doesn't allow us to see the full scope of what it looks like EXACTLY, it is still impressive nonetheless.
Secondly, we do have telescopes which have given us a pretty deep perspective when it comes to what we've been able to see and measure. The creator of this video has also mentioned the multiple device's, Scans and Surveys we've used in order to get a visual perspective on the form and shape our universe takes. One of the issues mentioned is the "End of Greatness" issue. We can only see visible light to a certain extent. As a result of the universal speed limit of Light, the further we look in distance, the older the age of where we are looking. So, with the other issue of the " Horizon Problem" he mentioned, it can have an almost haze of uniformity, but, with the theory of Inflation, we can essentially infer as to what the shape of our Universe, Cosmos, Galaxy, Solar System, etc. To a pretty close approximation as to the example given in the video.
I do hope my rambling response (which mind you, I only understand much of these concepts at a surface level) has given you some insight as it pertains to your original question. Always stay curious, always keep your mind open to new information while also debating that information until you're able to get either an informed theory or opinion, or you're able to get facts and continue to build your knowledge off of those facts. 😁😁
@@youtubeisB0ring Hey, as The Ultimate Reductionist mentioned above "Professor Dave Explains" is a great channel for the novice. You asked a great question: how can we 'know' from our perspective what the Milky Way looks like? Short answer is: we can't. Not precisely.
What astronomers can do is map out points (stars, nebula etc.) relative to the Earth and work from there. From those now known points they work out a star population density map and these suggest that the Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy subject to new information. Keep in mind that our own central galatic bulge obscures a huge portion of our own galaxy from us. Then they can look at other barred spiral galaxies and get a pretty fair idea of what ours looks like but not an exact representation.
The scale of the observable universe (93 billion l.y.) and even just our galaxy (100,000 to 120,000 l.y) can be staggering but understanding what we know so far is tremendously rewarding if not hugely humbling. I hope that you pursue your interest in the subject. Peace.
You can actually see it in the night sky if it's clear and dark enough. If you look at what other galaxies look like, you can deduct what our galaxy should look like.
That marvellous feeling of elation when you realise you are
a meaningless speck in an infinity of Time and Space and that your existence is utterly pointless.
09:38 I love the nostalgic piano music, as if it were video montage of parents recording their baby's early growth.
I freaking love your videos, the production value is through the roof. The amount of relevant information is packed in tight with amazing visuals and with an amazing narrator, and you dont shy away from questions we dont have an answer to.
You present this content like my philosophy of science professor used to. It’s amazing.
The ability to explain physics to laymen while keeping things interesting with history and interesting stories. Love this channel and the others from its creators :)
Might have to rewatch this a few times. Never would I have thought I'd get so much information condensed into 45 minutes but otherwise summarised almost the entire history up to now of astrological observations. God met it's match. And the game is still playing out.
Fun fact: Kopernikus' real name was Niklas Koppernigk, which he latinized to Nikolaus Kopernikus as was a custom for scholars of the day.
All my life I've been hearing and actively exposing myself to information about CMB and this is the first time I found out that the heat difference is at a scale of 1/100,000. Thank you.
Thank you for these series of masterpieces!
Wow an astronomy video written and narrated by an actual human without randomly generated ai video footage? Thank you 🙏🏼
The all just gets more and more intriguing and wonderfull, i never thought as an eight year old looking at the stars it would go on to be so mind blowing.
Just wanted to drop a comment. Really. It's the least I can do for a channel that is such a massive source of terrific content. Never stop. Thank you.
This was beautiful and without a doubt my favorite episode so far. Thank you for all that you do.
If you could travel fast enough to leave the entire stellar universe and looked back at it from a long distance away, the universe would look like a star. A bright point of light in the vast darkness of ancient pre-existing space time that our stellar universe is encompassed within. ✨️
The effect of BAO are so profound that it's a shame it isn't discussed more widely in popsci and outreach. If it's mentioned at all, it goes about a millimeter deep. Meanwhile, this video did a very good job of wading into the concept further while remaining accessible to the general public. Cheers
Yesss, so right, but also I think the wider public should be made aware of the work of professor Subir Sarkar from Oxford regarding dark energy and the origins of the measurements that led to the nobel price for its "proof"
We can very well be still special observers on a scale we can't see behind the CMB horizon in a even bigger universe.
Imagine if the void is actually a Dyson capable civilization

Forget stars they takin' up whole galaxies up their arse ☠️
But the sphere covered the entire galaxy..
@@somethingsomething7993 no it would be the individual stars being covered, not a sphere covering the whole galaxy that's just so inefficient and impractical. Some galaxies still have stars, 60 of them, perhaps uninhabited by them, or perhaps those are the ones they live in since they have sunlight and they used the other galaxies to cover up their stars and absorb their energy...............fuck that's actually messed up now that I think about it...pick and choose which galaxies will have life and the rest can kiss life goodbye cause they covered up all their stars, and with such a large area of thousands of galaxies or hundreds(idk) which is a lot, this must be ...well a population of a single species or federation/covenant of many that must number in just absurd amounts if they need this much power/energy, the astronomical amounts of energy at their disposal, their technology to do all this, how long they must of existed to make this possible, I wonder how massive their fleets are...would they count their ships in the trillions while we count them on Earth in the thousands?
The power scales are too messed up, newer civilizations don't have a chance against them, the Reapers of Mass Effect were right, PLS NERF

You're welcome! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share more knowledge about the universe with you.
Would have liked to see a brief explanation of the CMB angular power spectrum and its relationship between BAOs and dark matter over/under densities in the early universe and large scale structure today.
This has grown into one of my favorite channels.
Thank you for the continually excellent content.
That was really great!
I didn't know what to expect (as some of the channels that do space videos are quite a let down) but this was so well done and enjoyable! 👏 👏
In fact, too short! 😄
I just subscribed!
That four minute intro is probably the best intro to any video I have ever seen
Thank you for sharing such a good quality knowledge. With you, I'm still learning with joy at 61 years old. Thank you univers too ! 😊
This was a fascinating video! Thank you so much for gathering the research, and compiling it into a very comprehensive and understandable piece. The graphics help explain your points and tell the story succinctly. The manner in which you speak, has a bit of wonder to it, keeps my attention, and makes me curious about what you will be explaining next. This was truly an amazing piece of educational fulfillment. Thank you for this!
this is one of the best documentaries i've ever seen and I cant belive it's free on youtube. Honestly thank you, it's just mindblowing. Im still processing!
I literally can't think of anything more special than being created by the universe to observe the universe in this inconceivable small yet detailed corners
Hello, Im a little late, but im 14 and im curious with the universe. Ive taught my self calculus, physics, etc. But two subjects that make me question is neuroscience and quantum physics. This video is way better than any video i've seen in months. Its really, really, really beautiful.

Its really hard to picture such a grand scale in your head, this video helped me put it all in to perspective, thanks.
Reality as it presents itself to us is something truly special! What wows me just as much is the humans contemplating existence and having figured out or theorized...all of this.
I adore this footage, I have a very cheap projector but the images still come out quite nicely, and some of the commentary is deeply philosophical, fantastic.
Absolutely fascinating, what better way to round off a day than getting lost in the majesty and splendor of our universe, all beautifully presented and explained with such clarity from the narrator. ten out of ten sir.
Wonderful, thank you. Well done. Perspective is enlightening.
Lately I’ve been watching many physics and math series on TH-cam, hopefully all this information can benefit me later
I absolutely love these videos and this channel. The best reason for youtube to exist. Ever since I can remember I have always wondered what is the universe, what is outside it, where did it all come from and above all WHY????
This channel feeds that curiosity, poses new questions with every answer.......
Amazing how this has been put together, so well explained. Fabulous presentation.
Right now, I'm at work.
I work as a guard of a fairly large area, I personaly do only nightshifts mainly because I worked in a hotel for a good portion of my life and I just can't stand people at work.
Anyway, being in this huge area, for 12 hours per Shift, sometimes having 5 shifts in a row can get a bit ... well overwhelming.
One moment you are sipping your favorite tea, the very next moment you see couple of teenagers climbing the fence and right when you get them out, 3,5km away, across the whole area an alarm starts blasting so you need to check it out.
Many people can't take this job, mainly the nightshifts, because how scary ot can get sometimes. Yet I find it unbelievably peaceful. If nothing is happening I love to take walks around the area and I always find myself staring at the stars and watching the night sky.
It made me so interested in the cosmos so bad I even bought a telescope, which I bring to work and I just look around and make notes, draw anything I see.
Sure, I'll never find anything new or something revolutionary, I don't want to anyway, I'll leave that to the smarter and better equipped lads.
But since I was a small small kid, I always viewed the cosmos as the biggest scary thing imaginable.
The sheer thought how little we are compared to the space is iust something that left me sleepless more then I'd like to admit.
Milkyway galaxy and Andromeda galaxy crashing into each other, Sun eventually destroying Earth ... just these two events, that might be BILLIONS of years away from us, just haunts me.
It's THE end, nothing else, all the humanity gone, all the stories of humankind, all good and bad just erased from existence.
It makes me feel like I'd wake up the next morning and nobody knows what we did yesterday although we can still move forward and somehow get to know what we did yesterday.
When any of those two events mentioned before happen, there is nothing.
I can't even describe how anxious it is for me even writing this down.
Somehow this topic can make me freeze in thoughts for HOURS.
Yet with ANYTHING else I look at everything logicaly and quite frankly I'm a huge ignorant with most things.
If I take a night walk here and hear some rustle around the corner?
I instantly think of 2 things.
a) Wild Animal
b) Human
I turn on my flashlight and go see what it is.
99% of the time It's just a Deer, Fox, Marten or a cat.
People are dumb enough to get spotted on camera way before they even get close to the fence.
BUT, in situations like these I don't feel fear, I don't have the need of thinking over it at all, I just hear, shine light, go, shoo away the animal (if Its anything other than a cat, I'd do anything for a cat) yet when I think about the space, our universe, how god damn random all of the creation ON this Earth and OF this Earth is.
Just a bunch of particles build up, create elements like water, oxygen, carbon, these things for little tiny organisms that somehow get bigger and bigger, now they grew a limb or two, now they build stuff, now they refine the elements all around them and soon enough we will start having sex with robots and whatever else is planned for us.
It's just super crazy we are even here.
We are intelligent enough to understand the scope of the cosmos.
We have phones to see videos like this and be able to connect with each other via the comments here or just by calling...
And all of this will some day be just gone.
No reverse, no reload, no "back to the lobby", nothing.
It's just overwhelming for me to a point I just can't think of anything that will soothe my mind.
Sure neither you or I will get to that point, not our children and even their children.
Not even children of their children and children of their children.
Yet it STILL makes me feel uneasy.
More than anything.
I can shoo away a big wild animal.
I can see a horrible accident on the road.
I can loose someone dear to me.
Yet I can't bring myself to compose myself when I think of the god damn space.
Truly a bane of my existence that thought is.
Could we all be just surfing through space in a black hole just to end up being spewed out by a white-hole in another universe?
I mean could the big bang be the result of massive amount of matter being push through an infinitely small space from another universe?
Yes.

Whoever does this music is a superhero. Fantastic content all around. Always excited to learn something new about our amazing universe. You are the voice in my head right before I fall asleep most nights. From the bottom of my heart and the depths of my mind, thank you.
Why this channel doesn’t have 8 billion subscribers is beyond my imagination.
Jamie Fearon, But there are 8 billion bicycles in Beijing...according to Kathy Mellieu. 0r was it 8 million??
then tell ur friends about and like vids u like to spread
Nice job! We´re getting there. I love this stuff!
this channel is cathartic as well as educational. thank you so much.
I can watch it to learn something new or listen to it to calm my mind and help me drift off to sleep.
The fact that there is something out there that light itself takes a billion years to reach is just unbelievably revealing of the ridiculous size of the universe itself. And even then it keeps expanding, the mind really is not ready for this absurd revelation.
Small mind
anyone ever notice that the large scale universe resembles neural pathways?
Is the PanTheos superluminical?
No need to reply, I don't think so.
@@LuisAldamiz Pantheos? i was making an observation :/
Yup, a lot of ppl. Wierd huh?
@@gamingdragon5140 - If those are neural pathways, then the Universe should be a brain, right? Just making an observation myself... ;p
@@LuisAldamiz coincidences are weird eh?
This is really well done.
That was so enjoyable! Thank you.
Thank God for calm, RP English narration. No hype. No frenetic hyperbole. This is how to do it. Sub'd.
And no distracting loud music.
Truly amazing documentary. Words cannot describe my awe at the beauty of narration and also the quality of reasoning....

so excellent! thank you.This should be shown in every classroom in the nation!
Man i love your content, thanks for all the hard work you do. 💜
41:54 - Excellent visual! Thanks.
There is no movie I would watch as often as your videos .. good job !
Wow. Great video. Concise, thoroughly researched, and accurate information. Incredible writing. Just a superb job. Thank you.
Interesting how the universe at one point kinda looks like a tree. Reminds me of Yggdrasill, the tree from Norse mythology. It was believed to be the world tree, a giant ash supporting the universe. Pretty cool coincidence, if you ask me.
That’s no coincidence!
@@dieterjoseph8569 But Norse mythology was created by humans. What are the odds humans made up stories about how the universe works and they turned out to be true?
@@jesseyu69420 High. It's easy to make things up, enough times and it'll eventually be accurate
@@theresnothinghereatall it being a highly probable occurrence doesn't change the fact that it's still a coincidence.
Or is it just our choice to see things in understandable structures that sees a tree where none exists, kinda like seeing faces in shadows or clouds?
I've grown bored of cosmos films like this one or so I thought. 46 minutes passed by unnoticed. I'm amazed by the grand scheme of the universe yet again. Thank you.
Wonderfully written and the perfect production. Narrator and background track perfect balance.
Copy cat shit
I love these types of videos, they make me realize I’m not alone with my thoughts that steal my sleep time ❤
Have you explored where the “boundary” between existence and “non-existence” is? For example, even the most abstract and “unimportant” thought by the “most” infinitesimal tiny “being” is well within existence. What is “on the other side” of that, I call it “non-existence” for a lack of a better term.
The first thought that entered my mind when seeing the thumbnail image was Yggdrasil the world tree from Norse mythology.
i'd like to see more differentiation between measurements/facts and theories!
many/most theories in human history had been proven wrong over time!
great work! last third is even better!
